sig

I need an opinion. Do u like my new sig? Or is the old one better? RC-0722 247.5/1 04:30, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

That's my kill death ratio in Star Wars: Battlefront 2, and interestingly enough, that was also my halo 3 Kill/death ratio in last nights tournament (in which I used my infamous account, A Little Girl) RC-0722 247.5/1 04:33, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

Thats great! I mean, thats cool So do you like the new witch or te old with better? I like the new witch because it was orginally a nuvola icon. Nothing444 15:48, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
Well, I taught today's lesson. You should create a subpage were you store the lessons in. This is my lesson subpage Nothing444 16:12, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

Table of Contents

Hey, I was wondering if you could help my page out. The Table of Contents are all screwed up and even though it is marked for deletion, you fixed it last time. I was hoping that you could help me out again. The =Awards= Title should be 3. on the table of contents. Instead, it is like. 2.3.2.1 or something. Could you tell me how to make it just three? That also applies the screwed up headings below that. and oops, sorry for not signing Lifelongpyro (talk) 23:57, 30 March 2008 (UTC)


Yep, that works perfectly, Thank you so much. I think you made that change before but for some reason it moved it the other way instead of back....Hmm, but thanks, that works! Lifelongpyro (talk) 00:36, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

Notice

A posting has been made here about cabals. I am not going to comment but perhaps you might have something to say about it.--Uga Man (talk) UGA MAN FOR PRESIDENT 2008 03:03, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Someone just speedy deleted all of the cabals. - DiligentTerrier (and friends) 14:57, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
We need to delete all the useless cabals such as The Penguin Cabal and the Bathrobe Cabal. I suggest we take them to MFD.--Uga Man (talk) UGA MAN FOR PRESIDENT 2008 22:17, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
One of the problems they had with the Potato Head Cabal was that it was overly bureaucratic. Maybe we could reform it by adding all the effective wikipedia-related activities together (including WikiMoney), allowing anybody to join, and having it set up more like a WikiProject.--Uga Man (talk) UGA MAN FOR PRESIDENT 2008 22:49, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
As an un-involved editor (because I arrived too late to the party), and as someone that sort of knows RyRy5, and as someone who likes too much reading this sort of discussions and finding flaws on them, I have to say that doing the changes mentioned by Uga Man is a very good thing, but that the involved users will *also* need to make more edits in mainspace and less edits in userspace, and that the project better be geared towards promoting more edits on mainspace, or it will be deleted because of WP:MYSPACE and all the similar stuff that gets invoked with it. Just doing a friendly drive-by advice, so you don't need to learn this by own experience a few weeks down the road. (The percentage of userspace edits was heavily discussed on ANI, and I think that it was the second most important reason for deletion, because of it being a very clear breach of WP:MYSPACE, with the first reason being making votes for accepting new users, a WP:DEMOCRACY breach) --Enric Naval (talk) 01:59, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Cabals

I've started an informal consensus survey which I hope will help us come to a conclusion on whether the cabals should remain deleted. You can express your opinion at this page (link). Thank you. - DiligentTerrier (and friends) 12:42, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

cabal oppression

It's ok. You had did nothing but help protect the innocent cabals from life in deletion hood. Its good to remember out fallen heroes for standing up for 42's and potatoes alike. The most we can do now, is remember those who added that little something extra to our everyday wikilife. To cherish that even when the times got tough and the articles got vandalized, there were some cabal pages that brought just enough humor to keep us going, to prevent the need for wikibreaks, to bring us back to this great wiki made and benefiting all human kind. Now that there gone (for now) we need to hold our heads high, and when the harassment of vandals gets to much or the work of real life detracts from wikilife, just remember the cabals that gave there very articlehood just to keep us going. If those brave and noble cabals are allowed to return, be sure to greet them with thanks and acknowledge the bravery the should every hour they were deleted. Do not hate those who deleted them, but realize that they did not understand all that the cabals meant to the wikicommunity. The cabals do not hate them, they have forgiven them. But let use work together that one day all cabals will be free, that all cabals will be equal, and that they may once again enlighten and improve our now humorless wikilives. The best thing to do most of all, is remember.

in grateful memory --Pewwer42  Talk  00:29, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

RE:Images

Here you go. Sorry about the late answer! I keep getting caught up in real life. Also, do you want me to reply to your messages on my talk page from now on? Master of Puppets Call me MoP! :) 09:50, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Don't worry, nothing wrong. :) However, your talk page fills up quickly, and I'd hate to make new topics for every question; I feel like I'm spamming you. So maybe working with my talk page would work. I dunno, you answer the way you want to answer. Cheers, Master of Puppets Call me MoP! :) 05:33, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
I decided I'll just use old topic headers. Anyway, they weren't really speedied. You see, admins can delete stuff using their discretion as long as they feel it won't be controversial; however, in special cases, they don't have to follow any rules. We call this WP:IAR. Basically, if it is harming the encyclopedia, kill it, even if there are people who object. It's kinda WP:BOLD on cocaine. So in this case, IAR was used to delete all of them. Master of Puppets Call me MoP! :) 23:01, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
Huh. Well, the deleter has stated that they used IAR as the reason, so I'm not sure about that. Master of Puppets Call me MoP! :) 23:10, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
He hasn't been on forever, so I dunno. And I'm not quite sure, Max has been gone for a while, though I saw him post just a while ago. Master of Puppets Call me MoP! :) 19:45, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

French cantons

Hello Basketball110. I am slowly getting around to starting the French canton articles. However, It seem that a bug came up in the creation of one of the templates and Canton of Champagne-en-Valromey looks horrible.
